mircea_popescu: someone taking down all tor nodes is
a coupla degrees of magnitude over that.
mircea_popescu: this is
a small scale garden variety tor implementation.
Lyspooner: Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell
a fury like
a script kiddie scorned
mircea_popescu: in between these extremes
a number of intermediate solutions.
Lyspooner: hell hath no fury like
a script kiddie scorned

a much different picture

mircea_popescu: Lyspooner so i made
a spurious comment on the interwebs.
jurov: From
a historical standpoint, major economic bubbles are
a rare phenomenon. Unlike business cycles, which occur quite frequently and with great regularity, there have not been many bubbles throughout history.
mircea_popescu: every halfwit with
a "liberal arts" degree in nothing specifically from Nowhere University is going to, on the mid term, publish
a finite nonzero number of papers
mircea_popescu: one of them being that youthful cocks with milkstrings still atached will end up publishing on wanna-be "respectable" venues
a la seeking alpha as if they were people.
jurov: According to the Communist Manifesto, there were three major reasons why capitalism would come to
a halt.
Bugpowder: anyone know EXACTLY how wash sale rules effect
a long-term cap gain? As in, if I buy
a stock for $5, sell it 8 months later for $10, rebuy for $9 the next day then sell again for $50 8 months after that.
mircea_popescu: i can't believe forum idiots actually propose btctalk as
a comparison for anything.
DeaDTerra1: HAHAH one million shares was
a bit strong xD
Ukto: that means the last week picked up
a lot of earnings
deadweasel: I was just wondering where I could find
a massage for BTC?
mircea_popescu: "herpderp i learned sort-of webcoding over the summer so now i start
a business where other people do the work. it's
a platform."
Lyspooner: normally it's
a list of all the sites that house bitcoin assets
deadweasel: I have seen no surplus in brains anywhere in bitcoin, except
a few here and there.
mod6: there seems to be
a real lack of brains when it comes to bitcoin on there though
jcpham: but he had
a soul guarantee
dub: im going aquaponics when I finally get
a house
dub: sent 0.000000001/share then

mod6: (10:04) < mircea_popescu> i think it was about time twitter got
a dose of mp. << yes!
mircea_popescu: in short : i've put
a lot of thinking into creating macrostability here, i obviously may have overlooked holes/been stupid/etc, but it won't be trivial in any case.
mircea_popescu: with
a lot of finesse you could construct synthetic positions of maybe 100k, but not 1mn and over.
mircea_popescu: unbalanced in theory this is possible. however this theory tends to blow up in practice. it's no different from any attempt to corner
a market, and those have historically ended up poorly.
jurov: not
a frontend, just proxy
unbalanced: Or am I
a) paranoid? b) ill-informed? c) both? Probably c)
unbalanced: mircea_popescu, thanks for the reply above. Could someone rich in cash & BTC, holding BTC futures/options at say
a $50 strike could have an incentive to buy up BTC to that level to not lose on the option trade?
mircea_popescu: @karenmpd They move. Consumers don't get
a say, that's what the definition of consumer implies : "stfu, swallow the menu, say ty".
gribble: Error: "facepalm" is not
a valid command.
mod6: (09:20) < mircea_popescu> mod6 how often do customers go "mmkay" << haha, 0. the one guy I do
a actual website for doesn't give
a shit since he cuts down trees for
a living lol
gribble: Error: "when" is not
a valid command.
mircea_popescu: mod6 when you're hung like
a snake gotta do what you gotta do.
mod6: jurov must be tall to fuck
a giraffe, or he likes to fuck on
a ladder. ;)
jurov: oh and i almost convinced
a dude that coinbr bought mpex
ThickAsThieves: "The U.S. dollar is an obvious Ponzi scheme," said Thomas, who thinks the U.S. government has too much debt to raise interest rates high enough to defend the dollar if there were ever
a run on it. With Bitcoin, "you feel like you're in control of your money."
mircea_popescu: Chilca there's
a pretty dumb ddos going on the main domain. but you can use any of the proxies jsut fine
jcpham: apparently i pasted
a one liner in -otc and stopped someone from dropping 50k from
a BoA from their cell phone on bitcoin
mircea_popescu: mod6 was
a ddos back in jan, set up the entire proxy structure then. that's when jurov made his, i think smickles has one too
smickles: look, there is
a corelated rise of "mainstream" with the recent rise in "bitcoin"
Chaang-Noi: buying more asics means more coins... and
a company worth more.. cant just look at dividends
mircea_popescu: jurov thing is
a certain strike can't push it past
a certain level
mod6: (08:48) < smickles> mircea_popescu: heh, well, it's
a boy, and he is expected to come mid may << Nice! It's getting closer. :]
smickles: ;;later tell anduck pm or email me when you get
a chance
imsaguy: just goes to show that sending
a bunch of microdust without paying
a respectible fee is silly
smickles: mircea_popescu: heh, well, it's
a boy, and he is expected to come mid may
imsaguy: mircea_popescu: load up
a free instance of amazon?
imsaguy: mtgox was
a hackjob originally trading magic cards
imsaguy: ThickAsThieves: the example is
a bad analogy, sure
Bugpowdrr: they are running
a site that is trading $5MM in currency
a day
smickles: Bugpowdrr: at least they arn't running
a CS server

jurov: doctor_pullfingr so you did
a mpex trade like i just did and assbot did not show it?
doctor_pullfingr: doctor_pullfingr just needs
a timestamp not
a big deal. I can see the site, but assbot only shows HAVELOCK trades.
smickles: jurov: but will doctor_pullfingr believe that assbot gets data from
a reliable source?

jurov: doctor_pullfinge it's
a proxy that we sewt up after last ddos
smickles: doctor_pullfinge: it is pretty much
a replication of mpex.co
doctor_pullfinge: but that's
a pass-through page that might be cached from last night.
jurov: doctor_pullfinge i don't know anything about mp... except he does have irc client opened, that's
a good sign perhaps
blu3gr1ffon: what's
a good fee these days for sub 10 minute 6 confirmations?
smickles: EskimoBob: how long of
a history?
